Chart from Historical Data

12-27-2011, 02:59 PM

I have a fresh installation of NinjaTrader and have not connected to any data feeds. I loaded 1M historical data for USDJPY and added it to the instrument list but cannot seem to get it to plot the data. It shows up in the history manager but I am unable to chart it or use it in the strategy tester.

I figured out the answer to my own question right after I posted this. My price data is in terms of bid prices so when I imported it I selected bid for data type. However in both the charts and strategy tester NT defaults to Last for "Price based on". Changing the drop down to bid did the trick!
